DKKQ Limerick

Last weekend the DKKQ tour bus was parked at the airport as the event was transported by what seems to be a micro-light to Limerick and the competition at the West County Hotel in Ennis. Desiree Halvey-Purcell definitely has the easiest venue of the year…. we all get to set-up on Saturday, then eat, sleep and simply walk into the full ballroom for the Qualifiers…. superb!. Being the only Southern Irish heat they literally do come from far and wide and by 10.30 am the venue was packed. Although only Champions and above seemed to enter the qualifiers the actual standard was superb…. the Freestyle in particular was Grand!!! By close of play we got our qualifiers and everyone went away happy…. so the tour returned to Shannon Airport and the Tiger Moth back to the mainland. To Desiree, Tucker and everyone at the heat…. Tanks A Million!!!

So now watch out Haywards Heath on the 25th… here we come for the penultimate heat!

DKKQ Heat 10.

“Juliet, Juliet….. wherefore art though Juliet?”…. ok so it’s a Bard Shakespearian reference but what would you expect… it’s been a long tour. Heat 10 in Stratford Upon Avon turned out to be yet another hot day….. so much so that the doors to the Leisure Centre were opened to let the heat out…. only to find hordes of Japanese tourists wondering just what on earth was going on!?!?! But John and Juliet Short helped put together another great day on the way to the DKKQ Grand Finals, just 3 months away now, with some more great qualifiers.

The tour bus has since hit Limerick and will be off to Haywards Heath next….. a short break for The Scottish International Festival at Craig Tara and then onto the final heat in Sheffield.

So if you still need to qualify…. get a move on!!!

If you have already qualified your pics and names should all be shown on the dancelines website….. You should check for spelling mistakes etc as we are working from some very crumpled registration forms! If there are any mistakes then let us know asap!

And with that I’m off on my search again….. Juliet…. Juliet….. Juliet……

Feeling HOT HOT HOT!!!!!

It seemed to be the hottest day in Scotland ever…

There seemed to be more people in Grangemouth Leisure Centre than ever…

This led to probably the best DKKQ heat in Scotland – EVER!!!

The Dancelines DKKQ tour bus pulled into town to find that Marie McAuley Doubtfire had worked overtime to ensure that this heat was yet another 2011sell-out with schools desperate for tickets. This led to a great day with almost 11 hours of dancing!!!

The standard was excellent and it was difficult to reduce the DKKQ and Slowdance SuperStars down to the qualification finals… but the judges did their job well and Scotland will again have some of the very best dancers in Blackpool Tower Ballroom in December…. just make sure you book your tickets early guyz!!!

This year seems to be going by so quickly…. the DKKQ tour next hits Stratford Upon Avon on the 4th September, then Limerick (Ennis) a week later, Haywards Heath on the 25th…. with the final heat in Sheffield on October 9th…… and then it’s the GRAND FINALS.

With the results so far we can be sure that despite the winter weather Blackpool Tower Ballroom will be just like Grangemouth…. HOT HOT HOT!!!

RIOT IN MANCHESTER!!!!!

Ok, so it wasn’t a riot but the DKKQ heat in Urmston on Sunday 14th August was yet another absolute sell-out. Tom and Karen Baird managed, yet again, to sell every seat in the house and then some! The standard of dancing was brilliant and another set of worthy qualifiers grabbed their tee shirts and lanyards and booked their Grand Final spot.

Next weekend the DKKQ roadshow rolls into Grangemouth – it looks like it’s going to be the biggest heat there ever! After that there will be just 3 mainland heats left so if you still haven’t qualified time is running out!

LEAKED EMAIL FROM DANCELINES HQ… But who’s gone mad and sent it?..

And secondly the most important bit of the information….

I hate being the last to know…. and it must be true coz it came to me in my sleep state last night!!!

DKKQ has moved to the winter gardens and GAGA has booked the biggest fog machine ever!!!…. The room was eerily lit, the smoke was everywhere….. it was Slowdance SuperStar Grand Finals….. and it was the Adult Boys….. I just know that you’re all getting excited.

Imagine my surprise when Brendan Scullery’s new star appeared on stage… ready for his solo spot…. it was…. none other than….

Kieran Waite!!!!

So the secret is out…. I’m not talking to any of you!!!! but perhaps I need medication?!?!?!

Another SSS for DKKQ!!!! – no the SSS is not for Slowdance SuperStar but SUPER SUNDAY SELL-OUT!!!

Tracey Tuppence Walters pulled out all the stops to get a record crowd into the Spiritual home of Freestyle Dancing….. Chepstow Leisure Centre on Sunday 7th August. The standard was fabulous, the qualifiers fabulous the whole day was just fabulous!!!

There were several schools asking for tickets at the last minute that were sorely disappointed – almost all of the DKKQ heats so far have been totally sold out.

Next stop on the tour is Manchester next weekend (14th) but again the event is a sell-out. Organised by Tom and Karen Baird they have a waiting list of schools looking for tickets so will accept no returns on the day!

That will leave just 4 more main-land heats to go before the Grand Final line-ups are confirmed!

If you thought DKKQ was fabulous last year then you ain’t seen nothing yet!
